We have been given a right angled triangle, hypotenuse is known, and angle has been given. we need to find the adjacent side to the angle.

we use trigonometry ratios.
the ratio where we relate the hypotenuse and adjacent side is the cosine.
cos θ = adjacent side / hypotenuse 
where θ = 39°
hypotenuse - 17 m
adjacent side - x
we need to solve for x

cos 39° = x / 17
cos 39° = 0.77
0.7771 = x/17
x = 0.7771 x 17
x = 13.21 m
distance from Roman's feet to the base of the pole is 13.21

Find the sum of (x + 5) and (2x + 3) *<br><br> A) 9x + 1<br> B) 5x + 2<br> C) 8x + 3<br> D) 3x + 8
KatRina [158]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that we are adding the two expressions because the question says "sum" which means that we need to add. Let's combine like terms. We know that x + 2x = 3x and 5 + 3 = 8 so the answer is 3x + 8.

Can anyone help me on this problem? Please it doesn’t make sense to me...
Sav [38]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost per item is found by dividing the cost by the number of items. If the woman bought n items for $120, the cost of each item is $120/n. If the woman bought 24 more items, n+24, at the same price, then the cost per item is $120/(n+24). The problem statement tells us this last cost is $16 less than the first cost:

120/(n+24) = (120/n) -16

Multiplying by n(n+24) gives ...

120n = 120(n+24) -16(n)(n+24)

0 = 120·24 -16n^2 -16·24n . . . . . . subtract 120n and collect terms

n^2 +24n -180 = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by -16 to make the numbers smaller

(n +30)(n -6) = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . factor the quadratic

The solutions to this are the values of n that make the factors zero: n = -30, n = 6. The negative value of n has no meaning in this context, so n=6 is the solution to the equation.

The woman bought 6 items.

_____

Check

When the woman bought 6 items for $120, she paid $120/6 = $20 for each of them. If she bought 6+24 = 30 items for the same money, she would pay $120/30 = $4 for each item. That amount, $4, is $16 less than the $20 she paid for each item.

Figure RST is reflected about the y-axis to obtain figure R’S’T’:
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Flipping a graph keeps the figures size the same, so it isn't A. Flipping it doesn't rotate the angles either(R is equal to R', S to S' etc.), so the answer is B.
